Reach Is A Place “Never Seen Before” In Halo Franchise Says Director

The Halo: Reach beta was the most successful and most played in the franchise history and come September 14th, gamers the world over will once again take on evil in Bungie’s Halo swang song. Being that it’s the studio’s final Halo title, they’ve placed much effort into making it the best ever, saying Reach is a place we’ve “never seen before in the Halo franchise”.

Joseph Tung, executive producer for Halo: Reach said all this in an interview with Gamepro Magazine and also emphasized the importance of making the characters come across as more “human”.

“It was imperative that we make the planet more believable so the player will have the opportunity to connect with it as a character,” Marcus Lehto, the creative director of Halo: Reach said. “They will genuinely feel something for the planet as it’s systematically decimated by the Covenant over the course of the game.”

The game will be available exclusively for the Xbox 360.

    dunno what details i can give ya, i went in to grab blur and alpha protocol the girl behind the desk asked me if i wanted to preorder anything else and i said well whats coming out?
    she said transformers, blah, blah, blah o and project natal.
    i said natal? thats not due till the end of the year, they have a massive PR at E3 for it.
    she said yeah i know, she said they received a email from MS saying project natal would be dubbed wave at E3 and released in june.
